I looked at the website that was given to me last night. Can someone please tell me if my answers are right or wrong. Thank You

Is this an example of imagery: Mrs. Wyman is so sweet sometimes you swear you can smell muffins baking.

Is this an example of connotation or denotation? (I think it's denotation i'm not 100% though) He's a real grouch for sure, she goes on. But one that I've learned in my twenty eight years of living Bobby is that if somebody if a grouch its usually because their not happy and if they're not happy theres a reason for it.

I agree with your first answer.

For the second, consider the two definitions:

denotation: (dee-noh-tay-shuhn)
The basic dictionary meaning of a word, without its connotations. For example, the denotation of the word modern is “belonging to recent times,” although the word may have different connotations.

from www.answers.com/denotation

connotation, the range of further associations that a word or phrase suggests in addition to its straightforward dictionary meaning (the primary sense known as its denotation); or one of these secondary meanings. A word's connotations can usually be formulated as a series of qualities, contexts, and emotional responses commonly associated with its referent (that to which it refers). Which of these will be activated by the word will depend on the context in which it is used, and to some degree on the reader or hearer. Metaphors are made possible by the fact that the two terms they identify both have overlapping connotations. For example, the word worm denotes a small, slender invertebrate; but its connotation of slow burrowing activity also allows an ingratiating person to be described metaphorically as ‘worming his way into favour’, while other connotations based on emotional response (sliminess, insignificance) permit a person to be described simply as ‘a worm’.

I think you're probably right about the second one, too, but read through the definitions to make sure.

To determine if your answers are right or wrong, let's analyze each question individually:

1. Is this an example of imagery: Mrs. Wyman is so sweet sometimes you swear you can smell muffins baking.

To determine if this sentence is an example of imagery, we need to understand the definition of imagery. Imagery refers to using vivid and descriptive language to create a sensory experience for the reader or listener. It often appeals to the five senses: sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell.

In the given sentence, the author uses descriptive language ("Mrs. Wyman is so sweet") and appeals to the sense of smell ("you can smell muffins baking"). This description creates a vivid image in the reader's mind, making it an example of imagery. Therefore, your answer is correct.

2. Is this an example of connotation or denotation? (I think it's denotation; I'm not 100% though) He's a real grouch for sure, she goes on. But one that I've learned in my twenty-eight years of living, Bobby, is that if somebody is a grouch, it's usually because they're not happy, and if they're not happy, there's a reason for it.

To determine if this sentence is an example of connotation or denotation, let's first understand the definitions of these terms.

Denotation refers to the literal or dictionary definition of a word, while connotation refers to the feelings, emotions, or associations that are evoked by a word.

In the given sentence, the phrase "He's a real grouch" is stating a characteristic about someone. It is not necessarily carrying any positive or negative emotions or associations. Therefore, it is more in the realm of denotation rather than connotation.

However, it's important to note that the sentence does mention that a grouch is usually not happy, which implies a negative connotation associated with the word "grouch." So, while the main phrase might be more associated with denotation, the overall sentence does include elements of connotation. Therefore, your answer is partially correct.

Remember that language and its nuances can be subjective, so it's always important to provide reasoning and context for your answers.
